America East Conference bracket

While UAlbany's play down the stretch has been good and can push them into a tie for third with Maine, if they can beat the Black Bears in Orono on Sunday, the Great Danes will be the No. 4 seed for next weekend's conference tournament.

Things are starting to come in to form.

This is what we know so far.

Thursday, March 3
UMBC vs. Binghamton, 8:15 p.m.

Saturday, March 5
No. 4 UAlbany vs. No. 5 Stony Brook, 12:05 p.m.
UMBC/Binghamton vs. No. 1 Vermont, 2:15 p.m.
No. 2 Boston University vs. No. 7 (Hartford or New Hampshire), 6:05 p.m.
No. 3 Maine vs. No. 6 (Hartford or New Hampshire), 8:15 p.m.

Hartford and New Hampshire play on Sunday at 3 p.m., so the winner will take the sixth seed.

Even if Stony Brook loses and finishes with the same record as the winner of that game, they have swept both schools, so they would win the tiebreaker.

If UAlbany wins their game, they would play in the first semifinal at 5:04 p.m., on Sunday.

It's a long way from where the Great Danes were last season, where it took Binghamton leaving the tournament, for UAlbany to move up to the No. 8 seed, after a 2-14 conference record.
